Fluid: Mercedes-Benz Genuine Engine Oil 10W-40 to sheet 228.51 (Mercedes-Benz Trucks South Africa: genuine oil list (2025))
Oil filler is behind the front maintenance flap. The service indicator in the instrument cluster sets the interval from use, so service when it asks.
The OM 457 LA sees long idling in heat and full-load climbs; worn-out oil lets the turbo and bearings wear first.
Confirm fluid grades in your machine's operator's manual: they vary by build year and climate.
